NARDIA BAND is fronted by powerhouse vocalist NARDIA BRANCATISANO, with band members JUSTIN YAP (guitar), MARK AIRD (drums) and YURI PAVLINOV (bass) – the MBAS-represented champions at the International Blues Challenge Memphis USA in January 2025. They slayed international audiences and judges at the IBC, competing amongst hundreds of Blues acts worldwide to rise to the top and be placed in the Top 5 in the band category, reaching the Grand Final.
After the band’s performances at the IBC, which introduced stunned audiences to their impressive talent, US management immediately pursued Nardia, dazzled not only by her world-class unique vocals and charismatic stage presence, but the quality of her songwriting. Hot on the heels of that IBC success, Nardia was immediately signed up to work with Stinger Boy Entertainment USA. She has just returned from 3 weeks back in Memphis and Nashville, where she has recorded a new album of her original RnB Soul material with Grammy Award-winning producer Boo Mitchell.
With this, Nardia’s first show band show back in Melbourne after recording her US album, she along with her band show off the talent which scored them such acclaim at the IBC, and will be sure to lift the roof off the MBAS House of Blues – don’t miss it!
